Walsh & Pound
Nominated Musician of the Year (Will Pound) – BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards 2012
Labelled respectively as 'one of the most original harmonica players in Britain' and 'the UK's top Clawhammer banjoist', the two have joined forces to create a highly entertaining and astonishing live set which made its debut in May 2009 at Manchester's Chetham's School of Music to a rapturous reception. Since then they have gained critical acclaim for their live performances across the UK, including The Sage Gateshead, London’s Southbank Centre and significant festivals. They have just finished recording their debut album at Rooksmere Studios, Northampton, produced by Mark Hutchinson.
Prepare to be astonished by stunning vocals, frailing banjo wizardry and sounds you didn’t think were possible on harmonica. This duo is destined for great things, with their ability to encompass an amazing array of musical genres with ease, energy and excellence!!!!
